About this listen

IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THIS. A WINDSWEPT FIELD. TWO SUN-BEATEN MEN IN WIDE-BRIMMED HATS. ITCHY TRIGGER FINGERS. THE MUSIC CRESCENDOS. THE FINAL SHOWDOWN.

After a short break and some technical difficulties, Gabe and Patrick are back to finish what they started, looking back at 15 spaghetti westerns released in the year 1968. We saved some the greatest movies and the hottest takes for last – Sergio Corbucci’s The Mercenary (Italian: Il mercenario), Enzo G. Castellari’s Kill Them All and Come Back Alone (Italian: Ammazzali tutti e torna solo), Corbucci’s The Great Silence (Italian: Il grande silenzio), and Sergio Leone’s Once Upon a Time in the West (Italian: C'era una volta il West).

Check out Part 1 and Part 2 first.
